Currently w/ Sprint
- $157/mo 2 phones
- unlimited data, texts, mobile to mobile
Needs
- Good value
- enough data for me in the wife (don't stream shows on mobile devices outside away from home internet)
- we both need new phones. Wife would like to stick with iPhone but I am leaning to newer Android
** I do have Uverse/DIRECTV if that sweetens the pot for ATT

I love Verizon's coverage, and their plans are comparable to AT&T. That said, I would not by a phone from them. Buy it straight from the manufacturer. Apple, Google and even Motorola offer financing options similar to the carriers if you don't want to buy outright.
In terms of phones, I'd recommend the new Google Pixel simply because it will work on any us carrier, just like the iPhone. That way, if you want to change carriers, it's as simple as swapping a SIM card.

Project Fi. $20 unlimited talk and text, unlimited text in the majority of countries you would travel to for no extra.
$0.10 per MB however much you use.

If sprint is working just fine, then why change carriers?

I recently bought the Pixel XL and highly recommend that phone. I am an Android person. For phones, I just prefer Android over iOS. If you are thinking about Android, go with Pixel/Pixel XL.
I was a sprint customer - $60 for unlimited everything/month (had some discounts through work). I switched to Google's Project Fi. I did so for a couple of reasons:
1) I looked at my monthly data usage for last one year. I was using somewhere around 1GB/month. So Project Fi will cost me around $30 for month for unlimited talk/text and 1 GB of data. If I go over that in some months, I will still pay an additional $10. I have never used more than 2GB in any month during the last one year.
2) Project Fi uses Spring/TMobile/Some other career. So I was guaranteed that my new coverage is guaranteed to be at least as good as my current service.
3) This is the big one - I will travel to India this December. My Project Fi phone should work out of the box there without me having to get a local sim (which is a hassle) or pay the international roaming to Sprint.
4) I got an additional data-only sim card for no charge that I am using in my iPad. Both the sim cards share the same data cap/usage. This was feature was just gravy, would have switched to Project Fi if this was not the case.
I have had Google Pixel XL and Project Fi for three weeks now and am very happy with it so far.
